Limpingly is an adverb that describes a slow, unsteady or awkward way of walking caused by an injury or disability. There are several synonyms for this word, including haltingly, hobblingly, falteringly, shakily, unsteadily and unevenly. Each of these words is used to indicate a similar type of movement that is not smooth or flowing. Haltingly suggests an uncertain or hesitant manner, while hobblingly connotes a stiff, awkward gait. Falteringly implies a tendency to stumble or lose balance. Similarly, shakily and unsteadily both suggest a lack of stability. Unevenly is used more broadly to describe any kind of walking that is not smooth or regular.
